[Verse 1]
C
Well I found her in a pawnshop
F C
Somewhere up in Ohio
C
Where I guess some rounder came up short
G
And he had to let her go
C
Cost me ninety dollars
F C
But she's worth much more by far
C
Cause I never had a better friend
G C
Than that old beat up guitar
[Chorus]
F G
She didn't look like too much
C F
Just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe
F C
But a lady has never faired as well
G C
Who'd traveled through so much
[Verse 2]
C
She picked up the name of Angel
F C
In an old New Orleans bar
C
Where a drunken poet drew one
G
On the top of that guitar
C
Old Dave Stovall he marked her
F C
Scratched the song right out of his heart
C
Seems everyone who used her
G
Scarred that old beat up guitar
[Chorus]
F G
She didn't look like too much
C F
Just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe
F C
But a lady has never faired as well
G C
Who'd traveled through so much
[Verse 3]
C
She traveled with me always
F C
Through the alleys and bars
C
Songs I sang and friends I knew
G
Were part of that guitar
C
At nights it was my pillow
F C
Sleeping underneath the stars
C
Day and night I stayed alive
G C
With that old beat up guitar
[Chorus]
F G
She didn't look like too much
C F
Just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe
F C
But a lady has never faired as well
G C
Who'd traveled through so much
[Verse 4]
C
Yeah a ramblin man he has his troubles
F C
Hanging on to all that he owns
C
After many years of travelin'
G
That guitar fell by the road
C
Then one night in New Mexico
F C
I stumbled into this bar
C
Angel laid there smilin'
G C
On that old beat up guitar
[Verse 5]
C
Well I took her from the wall
F C
Ran my hands across the scars
C
Played again the old songs
G
That were written on that guitar
C
Friends I've loved and lost
F C
Many nights inside of a bar
C
Came back so clearly singing with
G C
That old beat up guitar
[Chorus]
F G
She didn't look like too much
C F
Just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe
F C
But a lady has never faired as well
G C
Who'd traveled through so much
[Verse 6]
C
Now she travels with me always
F C
Through the alleys and bars
C
Songs I sing and friends I know
G
They are a part of that guitar
C
At nights it is my pillow
F C
Sleeping underneath the stars
C
Day and night I stayed alive
G C
With that old beat up guitar
